The horizontal axis of Fig. 4 indicates that input signal-to-noise ratio, the longitudinal axis indicate output Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio;Fig. 4 indicates that there is no signal observations to miss Difference, sampling number of snapshots are 30, and the output Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio of several Beamforming Methods is with desired signal input Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio variation Curve.From Fig. 4 it will be seen that only considering that the mutual coupling of uniform circular array causes desired signal and interference signal steering vector Under conditions of mismatch, after this method mutual coupling calibration, the performance of Beam-former is optimal with theory in high s/n ratio Value this is because this method is corrected just for mutual coupling factor, and eliminates sample covariance matrix almost without gap In desired signal components, can achieve in the case where not considering other mismatch effects close to theoretical optimal performance.
The horizontal axis of Fig. 5 (a) and Fig. 5 (b) indicates that sample number, the longitudinal axis indicate the output Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio of Beam-former; Fig. 5 (a) indicates that the simulation result there is no signal observation error and when input signal-to-noise ratio is 20dB, Fig. 3 (b) indicate that there is no letters Number observation error and simulation result when input signal-to-noise ratio is -5dB.The result shows that the on-job mutual coupling for considering uniform circular array causes Under conditions of desired signal and interference signal steering vector mismatch, the performance of the method for the present invention, which is compared, considers signal observation error It is much better.
In conclusion emulation experiment demonstrates correctness of the invention, validity and reliability.
